Strange issues arose when I updated to 1.13.5 on my M1 Mac.
The simulator likes crashing a lot at random times even when I am not using it.
There seems to be something relating to memory with that.
Sound in the OS and other games are completely silent.
Wrapping a game in the simulator and unwrapping crashes the Playdate OS and sometimes the simulator.
(I never knew about CUSTOM gift wrap!! AAAAA! I love it!)
Playdate OS seems to be slower at loading things.
Like the Settings, the Menu Button with the Volume and Screenshot.
They would hang for a lot longer and work fine after.
Hopefully this list of issues helps continue to build Playdate SDK!
FWIW I do have sound (I tested with the volume bar in the system menu) with Simulator 1.13.5, M1 Mac running Ventura 13.3.1. And no random idle crashes (only when I run a game with a known crashing bug). It's only been a day, though!
Are all sounds not working or just some? We have an M1 mini, and a host of other Macs, and none of us can reproduce this. What is your sound output set to? If you change it does it help?
Are you reporting these crashes the next time you launch the Simulator? I looked at the crash reports this morning and didn't see anything that would be related to sound. Please attach any crash logs so I can take a look, thanks!
Oh, you know, going in and out of the Settings app while connected to wifi could crash. It's a known issue/limitation with the Playdate OS and the Simulator.
All the sounds don't work. Including the system sounds when I go to home menu in simulator. I also noticed that actual Simulator works MUCH slower! Like ~1 second lag to open system menu.
I was trying to switch between internal speaker, external DAC and even monitor speakers - no sound. Obviously checked if the sound in actual Playdate simulator is not muted)
To be honest the lag when opening system menu is kind of accurate. This is because there is a lag on the actual playdate when accessing the system menu.
